Welcome to the Atomistic Simulation Centre
The Atomistic Simulation Centre (ASC) is an internationally leading group working in the theory and
modelling of molecular, liquid and solid systems at the atomic scale. The systems and properties of
interest in our Centre span a range of size and time scales, from the time independent structural,
elastic and electronic properties of bulk metals, to the coupled dynamics of electrons and nuclei
in molecular scale electronic devices. An area of rapid growth in the research of the group is the
modelling of biological molecules and membranes.
Current-driven atomic waterwheels
Atomistic simulation of titanium aluminide
The modulated phase of high-pressure sulphur
Selective separation of actinides
Excess electron localisation in thymine and water
Delocalised excess electron orbital in thymine and water
Bond currents in azulene
Interaction of ionic liquids with a cholesterol bilayer
Aggregation of cholesterol on water
Nanometric ionic-liquid droplets
Clusters, liquids and crystals of dialkyimidazolium salts
Ionic to dipolar transition in room temperature ionic liquids
Mesophases in nearly 2D room temperature ionic liquids
Self-assembly in systems with dipole-like interactions
The systems we study often lie at the interface between theoretical condensed matter physics and
neighbouring fields, such as physical metallurgy, materials science, chemistry and biology.
